Bongard Problems sorted left have the keyword "meta" on the OEBP.

Meta Bongard Problems are Bongard Problems that sort Bongard Problems. Sometimes abbreviated MBPs.

The first meta Bongard Problem was BP200.

Some meta BP pages sort images of Bongard Problems (keyword miniproblems), while other meta BP pages sort other BP pages (keyword links).

BPs that sort meta-BPs are labelled metameta.

Left examples have the keyword "structure" on the OEBP.

Examples of "structures": Bongard Problem, Bongard Problem with extra unsorted panel ("Bongard's Dozen"), 4-panel analogy grid, sequence of objects with a quantity changing by a constant amount.

If the solver hasn't become familiar with the featured structure, the Bongard Problem's solution may seem convoluted or inelegant. (See keyword assumesfamiliarity.) Once the solver gets used to seeing a particular structure it becomes easier to read that structure and solve Bongard Problems featuring it.

A Bongard Problem can non-verbally teach someone how a particular structure works, showing valid examples of that structure versus non-examples. E.g., BP968 for the structure of Bongard Problems and BP981 for the structure of analogy grids.

Left-sorted Bongard Problems have the keyword "assumesfamiliarity" on the OEBP.

Sometimes all the examples in a Bongard Problem need to be interpreted a certain way for the Bongard Problem to make sense. Only once the representation is understood, the idea seems simple.

For example, all meta Bongard Problems (Bongard Problems sorting other Bongard Problems) assume the solver interprets the examples as Bongard Problems.

TO DO: Maybe it is best to stop putting the label "assumesfamiliarity" on all meta-Bongard Problems. There are so many of them. It may be better to only use the "assumesfamiliarity" keyword on meta-BPs for a further assumption than just that all examples are interpreted as Bongard Problems. - Aaron David Fairbanks, Feb 11 2021

Many Bongard Problems in which all examples take the same format (keyword structure) assume the solver already knows how to read that format.

Some Bongard Problems assume the solver will be able to understand symbolism that is consistent between examples (keyword consistentsymbols).

Bongard Problems tagged math often assume the solver is familiar with a certain representation of a math idea.

BP1032: The solution should really read "Assuming all images are Bongard Problems sorting each natural number left or right ..." This Bongard Problem makes sense to someone who has been solving a series of similar BPs, but otherwise there is no reason to automatically read a collection of numbers as standing for a larger collection of numbers.
